Reviews

I have started to get work doing reviews. This means that today I have a book to read and tomorrow, if I interview the author over the phone and then write 1,000 words, I will get £105. It is not very much money for what may well be two days work (at my pace) although I should be able to do it in five hours which will be more like it.

In November I have got to see Matrix 3 on opening day and write a chapter in a book about it. Again not very much cash (£60 or so) but I can't believe I am being paid to go to the cinema. I think my ideal freelance world would include people paying me for being me. Each day I could send off my invoice for being insightful and entertaining.

In fact all I'd do is blog and the money would roll in.

Very sad that the West Wing has finished.
